 For the first time since being released back in June of ’09, people in the States will  soon have more than one carrier to choose from when looking for webOS powered phones. The Plus variant of the the Pre and Pixi are slated for release on the 25th of this month on Verizon, and we know that a launch on AT&T<\/a> can’t be too<\/em> far behind. Both Verizon and AT&T have recently made some significant modifications to their phone plans, making it a little confusing for those in the market for a new Palm phone, so big ups to BillShrink for compiling a comprehensive (and we do mean comprehensive) comparison<\/a> of the major US carriers’ phone plans.<\/p>\n

The basic story is this: Voice + Text + Unlimited Data for the three carriers breaks down thusly:<\/p>\n\n\n\n\n\n\n
Minutes<\/td>\nVerizon<\/td>\nAT&T<\/td>\nSprint<\/td>\n<\/tr>\n
450<\/td>\n$89.99<\/td>\n$89.99<\/td>\n$69.99<\/td>\n<\/tr>\n
900<\/td>\n$109.99<\/td>\n$109.99<\/td>\n$89.99<\/td>\n<\/tr>\n
Unlimited<\/td>\n$119.99<\/td>\n$119.99<\/td>\n$99.99<\/td>\n<\/tr>\n<\/tbody>\n<\/table>\n

Sprint wins on nights and weekends (theirs start at 7pm instead of 9) and mobile-to-mobile too (Verizon and AT&T are in-network only). Sprint also tends to be the cheapest of the three for family plans, as well.<\/p>\n

Even though the Palm Pre Plus<\/a> is the bees’ knees, the original Palm Pre is still great, so the above chart combined with signal quality in your area is what you should be using to decide between Sprint, Verizon, and (future) AT&T. Anybody out there swayed to switch?<\/p>\n
